no offense to older people in chat, but why do so many older USonians try to overuse appliances or reusable containers with worn out plastic in contact with food?

@chat@hexbear.net

is this a worldwide issue? my hypothesis was they got introduced to them as wonder materials of the future. even plastic sponges get reused when they clearly have molecule-deep filth in every crevasse

    To be fair I was teasing, I understand if their jimmies are rustled. 😌

    Also I totally wash out empty plastic jars and use them as dry storage totes for all sorts of stuff (only dry no-heat storage, of course), no way am I going to buy a big 64oz jar for idk dry beans or whatever when I already have a perfectly good empty peanut butter jar!
